1t is very amusing to watch the Eng
fish audience during this show. They
take the most intense interest in the TRIP
of the Deadwood stage, and every day
there are more than enough who volun-
teer from the spectators to fill it and take
h ''perilous ride in the midst of the
hostile Indians. The riding of the ugly
little mustangs is something that is SO
different from anything they have seen
or heard Of that their enthusiasm over
that is very great. They seem, too, to
have a great admiration for Mr.. Cody,
and watch him closely in everything he
does. The riding of the girls they do not
care much for, as there is nothing in that
which is particularly unlike the riding of
plenty of English girls.
After the show is over the greater part
of the audience make a grand rush for
the tents, and they stand and look into
them by the hour. 1t seems to be the
height of bliss to the young English fell
lows If they get up enough of an ac-
quaintance with any of the Mexicans or
cowboys to be invited into their tents to
sit and smoke. The look of extreme sat
isfaction on these simple youths faces is
a study. English people all seem to have
a perfect mania for getting acquainted
with any n that has a reputation that
makes him prominent. 1t seems to give
them the greatest pleasure to be able to
say that they know a person who is no.
torious in some way for some thing, no
matter what.
The greater part of the English girls,
too, seem perfectly delighted if they can
get an introduction to the great, clumsy
Buck Taylor, the cowboy, or to Red Shirt,
and nave an opportunity to talk with
them. mention these two because they
seem to be the especial favorites. | have
seen girls standing in front of them smil-
ing and looking at them with the most
delighted c~ountenances, perfectly obliv-
ious of all the rest of the world. London

A Rule Worth Observing.

Never print anything in a newspaper
that you would not like to hear your
mother or your sweetheart read aloud at
the breakfast table before a mixed assem-
blage. You may find it hard to live up
strictly to this rule. 1t is a good one
nevertheless, and remembrance of it will
often send to its proper place in the
waste basket an unpleasant paragraph, a
suggestive joke or a disgusting news
item.-William II. Hills III The Writer.

THE SOULS INDUCTION

From some supernal height when all was drear,
In vibrant tones upon my listening ear
Fell this rebuke:
oh, Child of Sense!
Dost think thou canst outrun
Gods providenceS
Though swift and certain are the wheels that bear
Thy destined soul along life's thoroughfare,
Still, side by side there runneth sure and well,
The chord electric-God's own parallel.
We may not know
How near the message waits
To avert tn blow,
Until some direful peril in the air
Compels thy trembling soul to instant prayer.
Then, leaping fIom the cloud which day by day
Has led the iron hardness of thy way,
The message flies
Quick, %sentient, brief
Then shalt thou say, Lord. help mine unbeliefl'

Artificial Flavoring Extracts.

Many artificial flavoring extracts are
used in foods and drinks, such as amyllc
valerianate, amylic ~butyrate, propylc
ether and caprylic alcohol, which initiate
the odor and flavor of the apple, the
pear, the pineapple, the strawberry and
the raspberry. Their substances have
been tested by the French chemists, who
find them poisonous in considerable
quantities, but harmless in the usual
small doses. -Arkansaw Traveller.

Ethan Aliens Pluck.

While Ethan Allen was a prisoner on
his passage to England, closely confined
TO his cabin, he discovered that pin or
wire that fastened one of his handouts
was broken. Extricating the pieces with
his teeth he was enabled to loosen the
bolt and set one hand at liberty, by the
aid of which and his teeth he soon had
both at liberty, and he was not long IN
hberating his feet. But fearing dis
covery might lead to worse treatment, he
replaced his irons, bolts and pms before
the arrival of his keeper. 1t soon became
a recreation for the General to take oil
and put on his irons at pleasure. One
day the Captain, wishing to afford the
crew some merriment, ordered that Allen
be brought on deck. Hoping to frighten
him the Captain said: There is proba-
bility that the ship will founder; if so,
what will become of US, especially you.
Mr.. Allen, rebel against the hlngf
why" said Allen, that would be very
much like our dinner hour" why soF'
said the Captain, not rejecting that
Allen was allowed to come on deck only
when the captain went down into his
cabin TO dine. "Well, you see, answered
Allen, ''I'd be on my way up Just as you
would be going below" This answer did
not please the Captain, and he began a
regular TRADE of abuse against the Ameri-
can people. "In a short time," said the
Captain, "all the rebels will be In the
same situation as yourself" This was
too much for Allen, and, raising his
hands to his teeth, he soon snapped the
bolts and pins, took off his irons and
threw them overheard, seized the panic
stricken Captain by the collar and threw
him headlong upon the deck. Then
turning to the sffrighted crew. he ex-
claimed in a voice of thunder, "If / am
insulted again during the voyage I'll sink
the ship and swim ashore" This exploit
had such an effect on the Captain and
crew that no further insult was offered to
the General during the passage,-POltlt-
